The conference, already in its fourth year, will take place October 29–30, 2019 at the New York Marriott Marquis and will explore the paradigm shift in search from chaotic results to verified answers. Meyers will kick off the second day of ONWARD19 with his unique brand of comedy, followed by an on-stage conversation.

"Every night you can count on Seth Meyers to out the outlandish and deliver a deadpan diagnostic on what is really (!?!) going on in the world," said Howard Lerman, Founder and CEO of Yext. "We can't think of a more relevant – or funnier – way to kick off ONWARD19."
